It took several attempts before I captured these photos. This is a Wood Thrush. I think it is the 1st time I have photographed one.
We spotted her abot 20 to 30 feet in front of us on the hiking trail. As quickly as I could raise my camera, she took off. The good news is she seemed to be following the same trail but we could not confirm it yet .. she rounded the corner.
This little dance continued for a while. After a few times she flew into a tree and I captured the second photo. The lighting was interesting but I had a photo. When she took off, she went back to the hiking trail where I captured the top photo.
What a cool bird.
